i remember being homeless in high school, sleeping in parks and on benches. in the back of city buses. a broken heart in a seemingly broken world. Mum came to me, through friends found by chance. and this friend had an old car he would let me sleep in during the winter. mum was there for me. solace in sound. when i couldnt sleep and walked for hours at night, mum walked with me. this music, this experience, is more than these words can express. i was reminded, im not defined by the life im born into, but instead, what i do with it.
You are magic. Finding beauty through the despair, pain, cold & lonliness because there is so much beauty within you. Hope you can feel this love I'm sending.
I've never been homeless, but for some reason I feel like I relate very much with your story and the way you discovered and experienced mùm. I feel like the sensations were similar, even if in different contexts.
Mom died when I was 9.. Later in life through my imagination and signs from spirit, I got the idea that before my mom went to heaven, her spirit went to live in a cabin next to a lake. A very special lake, a lake she could look through and see me, and help guide me and raise me and set plans into motion that would give me a good life, and then when her work was done and she knew I was safe and would be ok, she finally left and found peace in heaven, where someday I'll meet her again.. This video reminds me of all this... I see the flock of birds as her soul, traveling to the cabin and keeping cute pictures of mine in there to keep her warm, and then the rocket is her going to heaven and the northern lights is her being celebrated in heaven.. I love you Mommy!!! Thank you for caring so much about me, while you were here, and from the other side.. I'll see you again soon💜🌻
as sad as the situation might have been, what you wrote here is absolutely beautiful! I could even picture and visualize your own dream. I hope the childwithsuchgreatimagination in you never dies. 🦋
Icelandic music all radiates this singular vibe, it's completely unique, strange, almost childlike, nostalgic and packed with emotion. it is gorgeous and almost alien in its unrelenting humanity
I remember being in my senior year at university in 2006, just discovered Sigur Rós and started to get into Icelandic music. One day I discovered Múm and "Finally We Are No One", and I was immediately hooked. I listened to that record every day during my senior year. It takes me back to the apartment that I shared with a guy that left in April, leaving me alone in that place until July when I moved out: the end of the Spring, the beginning of the Summer, in fact living alone for the first time in my life, the open windows, the sun coming in, the gentle breeze, Múm playing, the feeling that (despite finals coming up) the world was perfect right there right now. Today I'm 40 and have the CD of the Icelandic version of this album jealously stored in a plastic sheet. It's my little treasure, a perfect record for me. I still listen to it at times to remind myself of that breeze and that feeling that no matter what's going through your life, the world is still a beautiful place to be enjoyed through its little things. Hope you all have a great day!
This song makes me sad and happy at the same time. Like if one part of me wanted to smile at everything and everyone while the other part is melancholic, stucked in the past where everything was much simpler
i remember 2010 when i used to listen to this on repeat. Finally having the opportunity to hear it live for the first time this year brought tears to my eyes
Man, Mum is such a lowkey and obscure-feeling band/project to me that I'm surprised whenever I see new music from them, hear that they're playing live, see that they're making videos, just about anything really. I had assumed they stopped at Smilewound but then I found out that they're still active. It's like the opposite of Animal Collective, who I'm never surprised to see new, undiscovered music from, new projects they're working on, or seeing that they're playing live.
Down from my ceiling Drips great noise. It drips on my head through a hole in the roof. Behind these two hills here There's a pool. And when I'm swimming in through a tunnel I shut my eyes. Inside their cabin I make sounds In through the tubes I send this noise. Behind these two hills here fall asleep. And when I flood in green grass of tunnel... It floods back. Down from my ceiling drips great noise. It drips on my head through a hole in the roof. Behind these two hills here there's a pool. And when I'm swimming in through a tunnel I shut my eyes.
This is one of that song you are very happy to found, be use they are golden, so you keep listening to them again and again, and you have a phase of listening, so it writes good to your memory and then you keep comming back, through your whole life, from time to time, when you have that timeless mood when you want to visit that everlasting garden. And everytime you come back to listen to them they hits you harder and harder. Thanks for this artists, they must be from different planet. This reminds me of Jonsi, and Sigur Ross.. ❤
i've never related to the way a song sounds before. it's not even my favourite song ever or anything but it is definitely the song that identify with the most. i feel like this song on the inside.
A mi me parece que es como para dormir...pero si es nostálgica....también está buena de fondo pata estudiar o hacer cosas porque es tranqui.tampoco me canso de escucharla!
this song dormantly stuck in my mind, even if I heard it only a copuple of times and now, many yeas later, I realize that all this time has been setting as a beautiful memory
This is what I consider a band for all seasons - múm affect me more than sigur ros, though they are the only two icelandic pop friends I know.Well, I also like Apoptose, but that's just another story...this song nearly makes me believe mankind is worth it. When I bought the dbl10'' I thought "you're in for another big let down...", but it wasn't! God bless them, they're entertaining in a magic way!
2023 y sigo escuchando esta maravillosa composición. Me traslada a otra vida, a un yo que hace mucho que se fue, muy a mi pesar. Me hace volar, me hace sentirme tan bien y a la vez tan mal que me vuelve loco. Me pone frente al espejo y no me reconozco, para lo mejor y para lo peor. Me permite sentarme de nuevo, durante milésimas de segundo, junto a la persona que más felicidad y tristeza me ha hecho sentir en toda mi vida. Esta canción no envejece y siempre descubro en ella algo nuevo. Estoy enamorado de esta canción. Como el nombre del sencillo indica: Finally, we are no one.
My music tastes are always shifting and evolving, but this song has remained in my top 10 ever since the first time I heard it. I'll probably be 90 years old and still love this song.
This came out 6 days before my worst birthday ever. I discovered this song last night when I tried to find some calm music on spotify to help me stop my first major panic attack in years and I think this will help push me through the next 3 years of college.
Hey!! I see you said 3 years of college and this was commented 4 years ago... How are you now? How was it?! I'm starting my first college class this year, I'm a Junior in HS. I hope you can reply, i wanna hear your story
They're a pretty obscure band. Don't fault yourself :P I'd recommend checking out Animal Collective if you haven't already. Now that's some musical magic right there! Particular projects to start with: Sung Tongs, Feels, Prospect Hummer, Water Curses, Merriweather Post Pavilion, Fall Be Kind, Bridge to Quiet. Yeah, they have a lot of music. Not to mention their solo material (Avey Tare and Deakin are my personal favorites, but Panda Bear is great too). Good luck!
It's been 17 years since I first heard this song, and I'm still here.
Well congratulations you are still not dead. ;-P xx I'll race you. t hee xxxx

Someone should send this to Noah Hawley I think this would be a great motif in the Fargo show.
Beautiful story for such a beautiful song

More please apart from Sigur Rós, Björk and Múm?

I was 17 the first time I heard this. 25 now, and it still relaxes me.
I was 19-20 at the time this came out and now i am 33 and it still is beautiful as ever

I will forever love this song! I walked down the isle to it for my wedding
What a beautiful memory.
@@avzen absolutely! I love this song! I first remember hearing it years ago and knowing this is the song I will get married to!
Can we get married as well?
this song is very peaceful in my opinion, it makes you feel like your free and everything is going to be ok.
No this song is chaotic and not calming it makes me panic with anxiety
everything is indeed going to be OK
It's been 11 years since I heard this song. And it really makes me cry, just from the nostalgia. This is still beautiful.
same. It speaks directly to your soul.
Luv u too bro 😔💖
"Hehe"
I get emotional listening to this song aswell. I need this song on some days.
Still one of my all time favorite, still the same beautiful feelings each time I listen to it
Down from my ceiling
Drips great noise.
It drips on my head through a hole in the roof.
Behind these two hills here
There's a pool.
And when I'm swimming in
through a tunnel

In through the tubes I send this noise.
Behind these two hills here
fall asleep.
And when I flood in green grass of tunnel...
It floods back.
Down from my ceiling

Behind these two hills here
there's a pool.
And when I'm swimming in
through a tunnel
I shut my eyes.
Thanks so much, but I think it's "flow" instead of "flood"
@@georgeclancy1755 Thanks for the clarification, "flood" sounds kinda creepy
今どこにいるのか、今いつなのか、不思議な気分にさせてくる歌詞だね。胎児の視点ような感覚も感じられる。
I was maybe 15 when I heard about this group, now I'm 30 and always come back at it.
Had this on my myspace page. I would give a lot to be able to go back to those days.
simply one of best records ever made

Por fin encuentro un comentario en Español
Increíble fans hispanos
Hace rato que no escucho nada de Múm
Es curioso hacerte fan de musica islandesa injunable, y encontrar un comentario de un artista que nada que ver pero tambien sos fan.

Open, airy, circular, hypnotic, and just majestic.
Such a wonderful song. Still listening 2022
Listened to this while driving to a strange sacred spring on Island. This really brings me back. Múms best song yet.
How are you now?
Hello! I was just 4 years old when you commented. How are you now?
Its crazy, I was only 2. The old comments really take you back.
Jeez, this must be the oldest comment I've ever read on youtube. This comment section is as beautiful and melancholic as the song.
On of the all time classics for me
One of my favorite.. This song saved my neck a couple times.
found this over a decade ago & it still hits me right in the feels
Not sure why this song invokes a feeling of nostalgia, just turned 23 but it reminds me of my time in kindergarten.
so beautiful...

Welcome back good sir. If you've any other Mum-related questions, been a fan for o'er a decade now!
